FAQs
How do I know it’s time to replace my heating and air-conditioning unit instead of repairing it?
Most systems in Sharps Chapel last 12–15 years. If your unit is that age or older, needs frequent repairs, or your utility bills keep rising despite regular maintenance, replacement is usually more cost-effective. Newer units are 20–40 % more efficient, come with full warranties, and improve indoor comfort in our humid summers and cool winters.
What size HVAC system do I need for my Sharps Chapel home?
Proper sizing depends on square footage, insulation levels, window count, ceiling height, and local climate data for Union County. A licensed technician performs a Manual J load calculation to determine the exact BTU and tonnage requirements. Oversized units short-cycle, waste energy, and wear out faster; undersized units run constantly and fail to maintain comfort. A professional load calculation is included in our free replacement estimate.
How long does a typical HVAC replacement take?
On most single-family homes, removal of the old equipment and installation of the new indoor air handler, outdoor condenser, thermostat, and associated duct or line-set work takes one full day (6–10 hours). Complex projects such as zoning upgrades, duct reconstruction, or heat-pump conversions can take 2–3 days. We schedule inspections and clean up the work area the same day so you’re never without heating or cooling overnight.
What efficiency ratings should I look for, and how will they benefit me?
For Sharps Chapel’s climate, we recommend heat pumps or dual-fuel systems rated at least 16 SEER2 for cooling and 9 HSPF2 for heating. Higher SEER/HSPF numbers mean lower energy use and utility savings of $250–$500 per year on a 2,000 sq ft home. High-efficiency units also qualify for TVA rebates and the federal Energy Efficient Home Improvement Tax Credit (up to 30 % of equipment cost, capped at $2,000 for heat pumps).
What will my new HVAC system cost and do you offer financing?
Replacement costs in Sharps Chapel generally range from $6,500 for a basic 14 SEER2 split system to $12,000+ for a high-efficiency variable-speed heat pump. The price includes equipment, labor, permits, thermostat, and a 10-year parts warranty. We partner with local lenders to offer zero-down, low-interest financing terms from 12 to 120 months so you can spread the investment over manageable payments.
Do I need permits or inspections for HVAC replacement in Sharps Chapel?
Yes. Union County requires mechanical permits for any unit replacement that alters refrigerant lines, electrical supply, or ductwork. We handle the permit application, schedule the county inspection, and provide all documentation for your records. Proper permitting protects your warranty, ensures code compliance, and is often required for home insurance or when you sell your property.
